Super Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Well at least it was nice to hear from someone at the club even if it is to talk about a fake Twitter account! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRock Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Apparently, 'he's built the first team' so may be he's not only a player but our secret scout. Will be expecting 10 new players that Arnold's signed arriving on Easy Jet from France tomorrow. There was I criticising our lack of transfer activity and look...... we got a team full of Arnold's, we got a team full of Arnold's. Allez France!!!!! Lovin the guy already - he knows how to sort it.

Phileas Fogg Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Poor guy has apologised on Twitter now.. "I did not understand that I retweetais magnified the tweets because I do not speak English and I thought people wanted me be welcome!!" Great way to welcome him to the club, tweet that his account is fake on the club Twitter so loads more look him up, must be very bewildering and actually quite embarrassing for the young guy. A word in his ear tomorrow would have been fine. Really poor show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely no idea if it was because of my message or someone's whispered in his ear. Kill-joy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 All a bit of a mess but just an innocent mistake by Adam Baker, who clearly genuinely thought the account was fake and then jumped the gun by retweeting it on the official page. Don't really see the need to accuse anyone of lying. It's just a screw up. I'm glad my performance at work isn't analysed on a forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was always going to happen when they saw he'd retweet anything! 7 minutes ago, ChippenhamRed said: All a bit of a mess but just an innocent mistake by Adam Baker, who clearly genuinely thought the account was fake and then jumped the gun by retweeting it on the official page.

My problem with it is that he didn't make absolutely sure it was correct and really jumped the gun putting it on the clubs official Twitter. Reflects poorly on the club's grip on social media, looks amateur. It's embarrassing and bewildering for a young guy in a new country. Unnecessary in my opinion.

Chairman Mao Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 29 minutes ago, Lympsham Red said: The account is most definitely not fake. Either Adam Baker and Arnold Garita got confused in translation or Baker is the worst spin doctor since Alistair Campbell.

Unan Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Quite literally complete lies, I fail to believe he didn't know it was real or it was 'lost in translation'. We manage to sort a contract etc etc with him but can't ask a simple question without getting confused? Don't believe it. The fact Tim Shire has also chipped in saying Adam makes sure he gets his facts right before saying things and is also saying its fact? Grinds my gears.. Complete lies, literally lying through their teeth. They know it's real, there's no denying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bar BS3 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 This isn't really the fault of the club or the player. If Daryl Clarke didn't play with dogs, then the issue would never have arisen in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCulturalBomb Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Doesn't make any sense just like Kodjia's twitter, someone is running it like they are the actual player and it has been going on since past we have been dealing with him, so a bit baffled.

The Bard Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 I'm fairly happy about my decision never to bother with Twitter. Not seen any evidence it only ever provides additional opportunity to make a bigger arse of oneself than would otherwise be the case. More to the point, welcome to the young man. Lets hope he turns out to be a successful punt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrita was retweetinh all the messages he recieved, so people but messages like.. "RT if you love willy" "Whats Darrell Clarke wanks off dogs in French" he's retweeting literally anything on twitter. "RT if you love willy" "Whats Darrell Clarke wanks off dogs in French" "RT if you think Kodjia couldn't hit a barn door m8" "RT if you think Kodjia is always offside" There are so many more. "RT if you think Kodjia couldn't hit a barn door m8" "RT if you think Kodjia is always offside" There were so many more... Anyway, City obviously panicked and instantly said it was a fake account, which is a lie, and continued to lie about it saying it definitely is a fake. Reasons it aren't: 1) He's followed by his old club. 2) He's following by his old team mates. 3) He's relatively unknown, why would anyone make a fake? 4) He's been using it since 2012 5) It's link to his other social media accounts 6) It has personal photos on, that only he would be able to obtain All I can think of off the top of my head but its undoubtedly and undeniably a real account.
